Dear all ,

Need inputs regarding the below point

I have got an offer from MSFT (SPM) today and got the mail for BGV check . I have submitted all the forms
My question - should i resign now - considering bgv takes time or should i wait for bgv to completed and then resign . Whats the realistic time for bgv completion (they have mentioned 15 business days ) i just want to make sure - i don’t have any time where there is pay loss

Current TC - 60 LPA

Microsoft offer - 45 Fixed + 100K USD ( vested over 4 years ) + 15 percent variable + JB - 8 lacs + relocation assistance -4 lacs

YOE -10 (4.5 - PM )

    To be extremely honest :
    If your degree, work experience, physical addresses everything is true to knowledge and have no criminal record , then you should definitely resign and then let BGV complete in its own time.
    I did the same exact thing and i didn't even have another offer.
    It was the best decision i took bcz
    BGV for me took 21 calendar days and had i waited for it, things would have been completely complicated and ugly. I would have then requested my current company to shorten the notice period by 21 days or MSFT to postpone by 21 days.

      OP
      Ya thats what my dilemma is …MSFT has been extremely swift in their process right from interview to offer ( time difference between final interview and official offer is mere 3-4 days ) so don’t want to start on a negative note ! My details are completely fine … lol i just cleared paypal bgv 4 months back .. so no hanky panky dere

      I would say resign and then let BGV complete to avoid any confusion since for 99 percent people its just a formality

    It might take long time in bgv. At least take 5 weeks from bgv start to joining date if you don't want to be without pay.
    15 business day(i.e. 3 weeks) is their SLA and bgv should complete 1 weak before joining so it is very tight for 4 weeks.
    That's why I recommend 5 weeks after bgv start for joining date.
